After the show in Boise we drove all night to Vancouver. This was the longest drive of the trip so we had to hit it.
The border took a little while to get through. Had to hang in a building while the freak was searched. They went through some of the bags and Cody’s jacket (big laugh from all of us when we saw that leave the van!) My cord bag was all over the place when I opened it for the show. Everything was in there but they don’t pack like I do. No big deal, it only took them a few minutes to realize we are just a band out on tour.
We played in the gaslight district at a place called Pub 340. I was told its been open since the 1890’s!! What a cool joint. Nice and dark and it felt like we were under the building in the bowels of Vancouver.
And what a nice crowd!! We really needed it after the last couple of shows. It gets hard playing for just the other bands. It doesn’t matter how cool they are, it’s a little demoralizing.
We did the “Oh Canada” tribute and they loved it. I was worried it wouldn’t work but they ate it up!! At the end when we launched in to the Rush we’d been hinting at the whole medley, a guy in front of me started nodding like crazy and started screaming “fuck yeah!!!” They love all of that up here.
Victoria BC tomorrow!
